HOW TO CLEAN YOUR PIPE OR BONG

Cleaning your pipes or bongs is really easy. They key is to get some 99% isopropyl alcohol. You can find it on Amazon or a quick google search will provide you with other places to purchase online. Be sure to get 99%, don't get any less or it will not work. 
.
Let's go through the process together and clean this really dirty pipe that I've been making as dirty as possible for this post. 
 
 
You will need a bowl, a zip lock bag, some course salt and a pipe cleaner or a clean mascara wand. For the mascara wand, I like to grab some of the free ones they provide when you try on makeup at Sephora, but you can also find them on Amazon by searching for "mascara wands". For pipe cleaners, don't get the kind you would get for arts and crafts. You need an actual pipe cleaner which is denser. You can find them at smoke shops or on Amazon by searching "pipe cleaners for smoking".
.
 
Put your pipe (or bowl and downstem if your cleaning bong parts) into the zip lock bag and add enough 99% alcohol that the pieces are submerged. For your bong, just fill the bong as much as needed to clean the inside. Put the zip lock bag inside a bowl a safety precaution in case the zip lock bag leaks.
.
 
Let that sit for 2 hours, you will be surprised at how dirty the alcohol gets, I mean just look at this, ewww. 
 
.
 
Now add a few spoonfuls of your course salt to the ziplock bag (or inside your bong), just put it right into that dirty alcohol liquid and zip it back up. 
.
Now give it a good shake, carefully so you don't break your precious pieces. 
.
Now take the ziplock bag to the sink and take your pieces out and give them good rinse, it will look something like this when your done. Cleaner but not yet clean. 
.
Next take your piece and mascara wand or pipe cleaner back to the sink and start scrubbing inside and out. I find the mascara wand works best, it provides more pressure for scrubbing and also is bendable to get into all those grooves. But they are also smaller than the pipe cleaners, so if you have a larger piece you may need the pipe cleaner. 
.
Once last rinse and there you go, just like new!
